PHP5.5 - The /e modifier is deprecated in preg_replace()

[fisharebest]

For example,

PHP Deprecated: preg_replace(): The /e modifier is deprecated, use preg_replace_callback instead in /home/username/public_html/familytree/includes/functions/functions_date.php on line 62

PHP Deprecated: preg_replace(): The /e modifier is deprecated, use preg_replace_callback instead in /home/username/public_html/familytree/library/WT/GedcomRecord.php on line 445

The prefered solution to this (an anonymous callback function) isn't available in PHP5.2

We may need to wait a few months, when we will raise the minimum PHP version from 5.2 to 5.3

Some of these are in 3rd party code

Zend/Ldap/Converter.php (not used by webtrees)
library/WT/Report/Base.php - needs fixing
library/WT/GedcomRecord.php - needs fixing
library/phpmailer/class.phpmailer.php - appears to be fixed in later version; need to upgrade and test
includes/functions/functions_rtl.php - can we use html_entity_decode() here instead?

Fix released in webtrees 1.5.0
